Over class was informative

Over class was informative. However, I think the number of instructors in the class should be based on the number of students. Instructor could not assist all students with issues. Malcolm answered questions more general, in front of the class which i prefer my specific question to receive a direct/specific answer not general. Edgar was definitely more hands on including answering questions directly. But I could have gain much more knowledge if at least one more instructor was avaliable based on the size of our class.

This has been a remarkable experience

This has been a remarkable experience. As a newbie to trading, taking the Core Strategy class has taught me a lot. The flexibility with the night class was a plus. The information taught combined with the online material introduced me to the fundamentals of trading. Malcolm is very knowledgeable. I appreciate the additional support provided by student support.

Trading academy was the best decision

Trading academy was the best decision I made.. I was kind of skeptical at first, But decided to go with it. I learned a lot in core strategy with Malcolm and Edgar. They were wonderful. I most definitely will be taking their class again. 10 out of 10 recommended.

Malcon y Edgar

Mr. Malcon is a kind and patient teacher with his students, and he explains the material we want to learn very clearly.
Edgar, too, gives me a great deal of confidence and motivation to keep learning; since he also speaks Spanish, that helps me significantly to understand even more of what we are studying.

The instructors were all great

The instructors were all great. The energy and effort they put into teaching the concepts were very direct and fast paced. The expectations were very high. The concepts are drilled over and over which is great. Malcolm’s disposition is very entertaining and inviting. You can tell he really cares about us and wants to see us succeed. Edgar is no and direct. He shoots straight from the hip. He makes you learn and apply the processes on your own to ensure that you are putting in what you expect to get out of the course. There is no hand holding it’s hard work and you must study in class and out to keep up or you will fall behind. Day 4 is when I felt the most comfortable because Malcolm encourages you not to give up and give yourself grace. It felt better to know that 3-6 months is a more realistic time frame for a learning professional to grasp a full understanding of this course

Good Class

Overall the class was informative. However I was able to pick up more from Edgar because he broke it down a little better for me to catch on.

Highly Recommend Trading Academy

I started with the 3 day class with Tre and was so impressed with the class that I signed up with the Trading Academy. Core Strategy is the first that I have taken and Malcolm is the instructor with Edgar helping in the class. Malcolm is a great instructor who explains well and is understanding and encouraging with students of all levels. It is very helpful to have Edgar as a secondary in the class to answer questions and help keep the class on target. I definitely recommend the Trading Academy.

Finally real training on charts

I’ve been trading now as a beginner/novice for 6 years and for the first time in my career I can say that this has been well worth it. Better than any YouTube University or multi level marketing gimmicks this was for real. I’m proud to say that I honestly know what I’m looking at when I read the charts thanks to OTA and its great leaders and community. I am grateful and worth every dollar. The Core class with Malcolm The Mayor in person was everything and more. Thank you OTA and Malcolm I appreciate you

1-on-1 with Malcolm

Malcolm helped me spot errors in my trading during a 1-on-1 meeting with the instructor. We also went over the Academy's trading strategy, which helped solidify the trading techniques that I should be making, and how to better read a chart. Sometimes small changes can make a big difference in trading, and these 1-on-1s help tremendously with that.

The community is great

The community is great. I love the fact that if you have any concerns the director and the staff are always available. It doesn't feel like a school but a community. Everyone is very friendly and accessible for the students needs. From the director to the receptionist. Also, having the Director be so helpful understanding and willing to help the students succeed is the cherry on top.
